The K-MOVIE Award selects one Korean film in the Vision section and provides the winning film with a cash prize of KRW 20,000,000 and a First-Look Option. The prize money is sponsored by K-MOVIE ENTERTAINMENT.
FULL MOON captures the wounds and conflicts of its characters, tracing a journey that quietly mends the gaps in their relationships without any exaggeration. Nuanced dialogue and a precisely measured camerawork never force emotion upon the viewer. Instead, they exert a compelling cinematic power that allows the audience to deeply contemplate and resonate with the characters’ lives. Embracing the anxieties of human connection within a coming-of-age story alongside individual’s solitude, the film's warm yet incisive perspective aligns with the Vision section’s core mission, ‘Discovery of Distinctive Cinematic Language.’ We are honored to present this award to FULL MOON for presenting a bold, new cinematic vision.
